NEW DELHI: Delhi police on Tuesday arrested a BSF constable for allegedly stealing bags from the conveyer belt of the Indira Gandhi International airport.
The arrested constable, police said, was a national level football player who had won 11 medals.

The accused — 34-year-old Jasbir Singh alias Sheera, a resident of Punjab — was nabbed while he was stealing two bags.
Singh had stolen a checked-in bag from the luggage conveyer belt and used it as his hand bag while boarding another flight, police said.
